The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 230

Thalassa replied, "Yes, five grand."

She couldn't tell Evelyn she had been given the boot by the Sinclair group, who then forked out ten grand as compensation.

If Evelyn knew, she would surely make noise at the Sinclair group.

After all, Thalassa didn't do anything wrong, so why was she given the axe?

If Evelyn went there, she would know the reason for dismissal. It was because Thalassa had been stirring the pot at the company, saying she wanted to be Lysander's wife.

As a result, after Lysander got wind of this, he didn't propose or console her. He just gave her the sack right off the bat.

His intention was pretty clear. He didn't want to marry her.

The moment he heard Thalassa wanted to marry him, he just showed her the door.

If Evelyn got a whiff of this, she would surely have a bone to pick with Lysander.

Then, things would get really messy, which wouldn't be good.

Most importantly, Thalassa was worried that Evelyn might spill the beans about her having four kids in front of Lysander.

Given the kids' ages, Lysander would know in a jiffy that they were his children.

She couldn't risk that.

So she could only say she quit voluntarily and got picked up by another company.

Although she hadn't found a new job yet, she would hustle to find one.

She said she only had five grand because the other five had been spent on compensating Lysander for the tire cost.

She only had five grand left.

When Evelyn heard Thalassa's reply, her surprise turned into delight, and she said with a smile, "What a generous company to offer such a big payout. They sure have good taste, knowing my daughter is capable."
